Hi

I keep getting BSOD, with the IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error

I have checked ram with memtest86, i have updated all drivers and can't seem to find out what the problem is.

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (a)
An attempt was made to access a pageable (or completely invalid) address at an
interrupt request level (IRQL) that is too high. This is usually
caused by drivers using improper addresses.
If a kernel debugger is available get the stack backtrace.
Arguments:
Arg1: ffffbda1fbe828e0, memory referenced
Arg2: 0000000000000002, IRQL
Arg3: 0000000000000000, bitfield :
bit 0 : value 0 = read operation, 1 = write operation
bit 3 : value 0 = not an execute operation, 1 = execute operation (only on chips which support this level of status)
Arg4: fffff802b8cb42f6, address which referenced memory

Solution
go into control panel, turn off the system virtual memory, then reboot, turn the system virutal memory back on. The goal is to delete your hidden c:\pagefile.sys and create a new one.

I would then download and run rammap64.exe go to the empty option and select them all. goal is to clean out the preloaded files in the standby memory.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/rammap

I would then run cmd.exe as an admin (or power shell)
and delete the hibernation file a
powercfg.exe -h off

https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/15140/what-is-hiberfil.sys-and-how-do-i-delete-it/

goal is to get rid of the memory image that has the corrupted pages.

after you do this you have to find out why the pages were corrupted.
generally...
I haven't seen it report this before - BAD_PAGES_DETECTED: b168

perhaps run chkdsk on C drive

Can you follow option one on the following link - here
and then do this step below: Small memory dumps - Have Windows Create a Small Memory Dump (Minidump) on BSOD

that creates a file in c windows/minidump after the next BSOD
copy that file to documents
upload the copy from documents to a cloud server and share the link here and someone with right software to read them will help you fix it :)

actual dump files will tell us more about what was running at time
 


Yeah i have uploaded the file here for you to have a look at

Hi, I ran the dump file through the debugger and got the following information: https://pste.eu/p/zJaG.html

File: 080218-5203-01.dmp (Aug 1 2018 - 18:11:19)
BugCheck: [IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (A)]
Probably caused by: memory_corruption (Process: System)
Uptime: 0 Day(s), 0 Hour(s), 37 Min(s), and 12 Sec(s)

BIOS information was not included in the dump file. This can sometimes mean an older BIOS is being used. Consider looking for an update. Note: Updating your BIOS can be risky. Never try it when you might lose power (lightning storms, recent power outages, etc).

I can't help you with this. Wait for additional replies. Good luck.
 
IRQ errors normally caused by drivers older than July 2015. You have 4 of them
Do you have a Brother Printer? See if you can find newer drivers as the ones you have are from 2009
See if you can update Wireless drivers

What are specs of the PC? The dump file doesn't offer any clues, I can tell you either have a Asus motherboard or GPU, and CPU is Intel I7 maybe.

generally you would, update the BIOS, update the motherboard SATA driver for sata 3 and the CPU chipset drivers (to get sata 2 driver updates)

you would then run crystaldiskinfo.exe to see if the drive is having errors and to check the firmware version of the drive.

you would also want to run a malwarebytes scan then
run cmd.exe as an admin and run
sfc.exe /scannow
dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

(this will repair any storage driver that was modified by malware)
